RE: 20 questions with @wadepaterson (The Steemian Series)

in #life7 years ago

I loved reading your interview with @wadepaterson.
What I love about steemit is there is so many good and creative souls I met here.
To me steemit is a sanctuary of free thought and real life. A place where you can just blog about what you have going on in life and complete strangers wish you well and root you on. You can talk about things that are important to you and others from around the world can comment and share experiences.
Steemit is a destination for journeyers. People that explore around the world. We like to read about new things and different perspectives that we can't get from the news or from other social media.
Yes you can receive free cryptocurrency for participating at Steemit, and that is what brings a lot of people to the site.
Steemit offers freedom. Freedom to express yourself and an investment into possible economic freedom.
I agree with @wadepaterson about 100% upvoting it’s own post as not soo good thing. I'am only on Steemit for a very short period of time but I already have a feeling that there are bots are getting out of control on posts. Let's stop the spam and make Steemit great (again). People are promoting themself on unrelevant topics. Hunting for the profit. Not reading posts and commenting nonsense. I get it. People want money, who doesn't. But that is not how it works. THE CONTENT PROMOTES ITSELF There is no need for excessive spam.
I don’t want to go into details or in to calling the names “as a matter of fact I just caught someone copying my comment” but you get the idea.

Welcome to Steemit! Thanks for your insightful (and deep) comment :)

I, too, enjoy the freedom to post about whatever I want on here. The rewards are the cherry on top.

If a tree falls in a forest, will anybody hear it and is the tree real and does it make a sound: likewise, the content is great promotion but how can we get it out to more people and what can we do to accelerate that ooze from the fountains of Steem?
